I installed the game like the review below stated but it kept crashing as soon as the monarch was created. The solution i found was to delete all files and download the torrent anew BUT without the "SimsMedievalPatch...". That made the game run flawlessly for me. Hope it helps!

For some reason it keeps crashing at any NPC death and I don't know how to fix this. Has anyone had any similar issues?

So the installation went well, the game key works (haven't looked into the DLC situation yet) and I followed the steps @darthnardious wrote in a comment below. I'm just running into the issue that the game will crash at any minor inconvenience. I can't even get through the entire tutorial without it crashing and it's incredibly annoying. Does anyone know of any fix besides setting the compatibility to Windows 7?

Base game works fine, but DLC is missing CD Key, and attempting to use either of the patch files breaks the .exe

Having some issues with the Expansion installation? I'm assuming it's something that I'm doing wrong, but just in case can someone give me some guidance please? I have a code and manage to get both to install, but the expansion installs to a different folder and I can't seem to get anything from it in the main game.

For those that need it, the code for the expansion is:
HGE6-8EM8-S2MP-7S2U-QRLD

Hi i need help with replacing the files tsm.exe and the 2 others to game\bin because it says since they are already there.

My partner wanted this installed on her PC, so I looked this up on the archive.

This was a massive pain, so here is a STEP-BY-STEP of how to install this.

Download from the archive.

Unzip the main "The Sims Medieval" zip into wherever you want.
Setup the usual way via "SimsMedievalSetup"

Use the keys Kye dropped to get past the code issue.

Wait for game to properly install.

Here's where this can go sideways. PAY ATTENTION.

I am repeating this so you won't make my mistake:
DO. NOT. USE. THE. LAUNCHER.

This will break your game. It will not work.

You will put in your kingdom name and nothing will happen.

This is because of the patch. Just don't use it.

INSTEAD.

After the game is installed, take the files in the "flt-tsmu20113.zip" folder and extract them to wherever you want.

Copy these files, and paste them into:
Game/Bin/ (wherever you installed it. For ease of access, I just kept it in the same download folder)

A warning will come up saying three files like that already exist. REPLACE THEM.

Use the TSM application to launch the game.
Create a shortcut to TSM on your desktop.

Enjoy :)

You will get a "warning" from Windows on each launch, but if you turn on "Run as administrator" in the compatibility settings of the exe, it should go away.

For Codes I found this one works:
T9PP-6DVX-54RY-3544-7RLD

But also found these
4GPF-GQ4W-NF88-TNFY-DRLD
TGVM-LTQ5-862U-886D-2RLD
TGVM-LTQ5-862U-886D-2RLD
9WSS-B9PU-HPYS-AHPJ-ZRLD
HM5M-HQW2-5E62-55ES-8RLD
82UC-4DJ7-WNVM-5WNH-URLD
TV55-86WN-GJCZ-2GJ7-8RLD

Took 3 hours to install, seems legit, but it requires some sort of verification code to install which is found on the disk you'd purchase. Can't get passed this screen. Any Tips?

this is the only sims medieval download that's even remotely worked so that's awesome thank you! but when I click play on the launcher nothing happens. my task menu says it's running but I can't figure out how to open it.
